This is a striking, hand-turned twist ball point pen that beautifully balances rustic nature with modern craftmanship.

The Accent: A vibrant, turquoise-dyed wood veneer inlay cuts an elegant, smooth curve down the length of the barrel

How it is made: Before the wood blank was turned into a round pen on the lathe, the turner made a precise ,curved cut down the length of the square wooden block.

The Inlay: They then sandwiched a piece of dyed wood veneer (in this case ,dyed a vibrant turquoise/teal ) into the cut and glued it back together .

The Result : Once the square block was turned down into a cylinder on the lathe, that flat slice of veneer revealed itself as a smooth, elegant, flowing curve wrapped around the contour of the pen.

The Hardware: Finished with polished chrome components .
